Subaru Natsuki, who returned from the new Three Kingdoms

Upon hearing the book's owner's name, Natsuki Subaru's eyes widened suddenly, and his fingers gripping the spine of the book tightened abruptly, causing the cover to bend downwards.

The Book of the Dead only records the lives of those who have already died.

Now Roswaal's book is here.

So that means Roswaal is dead?

Good! Good riddance! Good riddance!

This is truly rid Emilia's faction of a major scourge!

However, it's unclear how this Grand Commander of Emilia's faction died.

The image of that border lord quickly came to Natsuki Subaru's mind, and he tried to find some clues.

I remember the last time the royal selection was officially announced.

He had seen Roswaal twice in the ruined hall.

At that time, the other person was pale and looked sickly, leaning against the cabinet, barely able to stand up.

Could it be that the Grand Commander's curse has made him terminally ill?

Tsk tsk tsk...

This is fate!

If fate decrees your death, it's hard for you not to die!

"Hahaha!"

Natsuki Subaru laughed three times, no more.

Now that Roswaal is dead, it is the perfect time for him to formally join Emilia's side!

In the past, that guy, relying on his status as Grand Commander, always made decisions for the entire camp, and Emilia always had this mountain weighing on her head. Now that the Grand Commander is dead, the camp naturally returned to Emilia's control.

If I were to join at this time, wouldn't I have all the advantages of timing, location, and people?

Subaru Natsuki's eyes gradually brightened.

He was originally worried about how he could join Emilia's camp with enough merit without the Great Sage.

Now that Roswald has mostly died of illness, that greatest obstacle has disappeared.

It seems that fate is on our side!

"Everyone, prepare immediately and return to the capital!"

"We must return to the capital immediately to find Emilia!"

Delay may lead to unforeseen changes!

Since we're going to do it, we must leave no soldier behind and launch a full-scale attack immediately!

Subaru Natsuki, well-versed in Cao Cao's military strategies, immediately cancelled his promise to stay an extra day. Roswaal put away the Book of the Dead with an Orlean veil and turned to walk towards the other people's rooms.

The reason why Natsuki Subaru brought this book with him was quite simple.

Although reading too many books can make you feel sentimental.

But Roswaal was, after all, a great mage.

His Book of the Dead must contain a great deal of magical experience!

In other words... we said it!

Ours isn't afraid of acid, not afraid at all!

Hearing that Natsuki Subaru suddenly changed his mind

Xia Wula quickly caught up and grabbed his hand.

"Master, didn't you say you'd stay another day?"

"Aren't you just toying with Xia Wula's girlish heart!"

Natsuki Subaru didn't stop, his gaze fixed intently on Shaula as he walked:

"Xia Wula, I was so excited when I heard the good news that I lost my composure. So I have to leave."

Hearing Subaru's resolute decision, Shaula slowly loosened her grip on his fingers.

Xia Wula stood there, her eyes quickly reddening, and the smile she had just managed to muster was now teetering on the brink of collapse.

"Master, are you really going to leave me alone in the tower again...?"

Upon hearing this, Natsuki Subaru took a few steps, then turned back to her, placed his hands on her shoulders, patted them twice forcefully, and said with considerable appreciation:

"That's right, Shaula! You'll be the only one left to guard this Tower of Sages!"

"At worst, I'll come back to visit you more often when I have time."

Upon hearing this, the day of their parting four hundred years ago seemed to fall before Xia Wula's eyes once again.

She looked at Subaru Natsuki, who was so close to her, tears welling up in her eyes for a long time before she finally nodded firmly.

"Understood, Master. I will continue to prevent others from entering the Tower of Sages..."

Natsuki Subaru nodded in satisfaction, but after taking a couple of steps, he remembered the group of people outside who were trying to break into the tower.

"By the way, regarding those intruders outside, and any future intruders, if they're too powerful for you to defeat, remember to back down when necessary."

"When they realize they don't find what they want here, they'll naturally leave."

"I understand, Master."

Xia Wula nodded again, tears welling in her eyes.

A moment later, the light of the Starry Night enveloped Subaru Natsuki and Capella, Elsa, Melie, and Clarissa, whom he had hastily pulled out.

The group disappeared into the tower together, passing the raiding party still entangled with monsters in the sea of ​​flowers, and left the Sage's Tower.

As the light faded, Xia Wula remained standing in the same spot, only a faint scent of her master lingering in her outstretched arms. She sniffed, wiped away her tears, and turned to block the middle of the corridor leading into the tower.

Just when Xia Wula thought she was the only one left and was on the verge of an emotional breakdown.

A mournful cry suddenly came from the side.

Xia Wula looked up and saw that Paklashu had burst open the door and was sniffing around in confusion.

After realizing she couldn't find that person's scent, tears welled up in her bright eyes.

He looked even more heartbroken than Xia Wula.

"Earth dragon...could it be that you also..."

Patrashu responded with a whimper.

Xia Wula quickly ran a few steps and hugged Patrashu's neck. The scorpion and the dragon cried together in heartbreaking grief.

Just then, the last batch of magical beasts in the sea of ​​flowers finally fell.

The tower's doors were pushed open from the outside.

A red figure rushed into the corridor first, and at the same moment, Xia Wula's flying needle shot out from her hand.

Reinhard did not dodge, allowing the flying needles, powerful enough to pierce mythical creatures, to strike him.

【-twenty four】

Reinhard originally intended to take action.

But the next second, he felt the Dragon Sword seem to tremble slightly.

Is the person in front of me qualified?

Did Long Jian recognize her?

Therefore, Reinhard did not retaliate directly, but stopped after seeing Chaura and Patrashu clearly.

The question that had been weighing on my mind for days in the desert finally came to mind.

"We apologize for disturbing you, but we mean no harm."

"Excuse me... where is the Great Sage?"

"Excuse me...where is Subaru?"

Xia Wula: "Aren't these two the same person?"

Reinhard and the others: "?"

Chapter 112: 107. Xuchang

"Subaru is the Great Sage? Then why did he rush into the Sage's Tower first?"

When Reinhard and his group were completely bewildered upon hearing that Subaru was the Great Sage.

Subaru Natsuki and his group were already on their way back to the royal capital.

Upon learning of Roswaal's death, Subaru Natsuki is eager to find Emilia and join her side!

Natsuki Subaru walked at the front, his hands behind his back, still supporting Capella hanging on his back.

Although everything was the same as usual, Natsuki Subaru felt somewhat depressed today.

I let Capela ride it before, so I'll let Capela ride it again.

After all, you want to get close to your mount.

But today he's going to seek refuge with Emilia, and Capella is still clinging to him like this...

It's unclear who is whose mount.

I just hope that when Emilia sees me like this later, she won't look down on me...

Natsuki Subaru couldn't help but recall the dragon he had seen on the rooftop of the Sage's Tower.

He sighed.

Subaru Natsuki was already somewhat resentful, and for some reason, Capella's hair seemed to have grown much longer.

Golden hair fell from the edge of the cloak, occasionally brushing against Subaru Natsuki's nose and neck.

This caused Natsuki Subaru to experience unbearable itching.

"Looks like I'll have to give you a haircut later," Natsuki Subaru said to Capella.

How can there be such an unromantic man in the world!

Capela, looking like she'd just finished a defense, pulled her hair back and instinctively tightened her grip on Subaru's shoulders.

No! No, I can't get angry!

Capela changed his strategy.

The power of lust has been activated once again!

Capela pulled her hair back, but correspondingly, the area where she and Subaru Natsuki were pressed together began to fill out.

Natsuki Subaru felt two soft touches coming from behind him, and his brows twitched.

Capela smirked.

See? I refuse to believe that after going to such lengths, you blockhead still won't react.

Just as Capella was about to strike while the iron was hot, she leaned in to whisper a few unimportant words in Subaru's ear and tease the man with her warm breath.

Natsuki Subaru spoke first:

"Capela, have you gained weight?"

Capela: "?"

Subaru Natsuki continued to talk incessantly.

"That won't do! As our mount, if you get fat, how will we take you out to meet people in the future!"

"Alas, our family is suffering, as bitter as the weeds under the wheels of a cart, as bitter as the bitter herbs in the cracks of rocks!"

"How did I manage to achieve this human-horse unity with a mount like you?"

"Not only could I not ride it, but I also got fatter."

As he spoke, Subaru Natsuki once again conjured up the image of the divine dragon atop the Sage's Tower.

Shimmering blue scales, an angel halo above its head...
